I love handmade stuff

That's the reason I'm so in love with our bespoke leather satchels (buy your own!). Each bag is cut, tanned, tooled and sewn painstakingly by hand. Each bag is different and yet each bag is perfect in its own way. Much like how each of us are different and perfect, too! Gotta love handmade!

You know what else is handmade?

My son's birthday party invitations! Vito's turning one year old! Oh my goodness. Where did the time go? For more on those adorable invites I handmade all by myself, click here!

    Frances, my friend Neva has been singing your bag's praises. What color is the light-colored satchel in the middle? It looks gold-ish. And the closure straps in front - are those real buckles or do you use magnets?
